*Jed is a first year PhD candidate based in Los Angeles, conducting his research out of London South Bank University in London, England. He is currently researching the connections between particular theatrical forms of practitioner Augusto Boal, current and past practices of activist theater, journalism, and social media platforms, and attempt to thread them together in a collaborative, bi-partisan approach to performance activism.

A one-night only workshop will be conducted to experiment with new exercises and techniques involving those in attendance. All participants will need to sign a consent form if they would like to participate, or as required by the PhD program for the subject’s participation.

*This is subject to change.
